Do parents know these things about the graphic design major?

In our list of trending majors for Gen Z, one field that has garnered significant interest and enrollment this admissions season is graphic design. Many young people are interested in studying design, but do parents know all the hidden "secrets" of this field?

Unveiling the secrets behind the appeal of graphic design.

For many parents, it's difficult to imagine the appeal of graphic design to young people. However, if judged fairly, this field deserves love and support for many reasons:

Difficult to be "killed off" by technology and artificial intelligence.

In the digital age, many jobs are being eliminated or replaced by AI, machines, etc., but this list does not include graphic design. This job requires a high degree of personalization, relentless creativity, and a unique aesthetic sense. Therefore, even with the launch of many AI tools for graphic design, they are still just "tools" and cannot replace "designers." Consequently, job opportunities in graphic design remain diverse and sustainable.

Extremely rapid growth rate

According to a comprehensive report by VietnamWorks – a major recruitment website in Vietnam – jobs in the graphic design industry are experiencing growth of up to 10% per year. This is a tremendous increase in the context of an economy still recovering from Covid.

According to forecasts, the graphic design industry is only just beginning to enter a "peak" period of manpower shortage; therefore, career opportunities in graphic design remain a bright prospect for Gen Z.

It possesses all the elements that young people love.

The graphic design industry currently has everything that young people love, such as:

• Good income: starting salaries are currently at 10 million VND or more, and you can take on individual projects and earn a total income of 20-30 million VND right after graduation.
• Diverse career fields: Graphic design is present in every aspect of social life, so you can freely choose any field or area to work in without being restricted to your academic specialization.
• Flexible working hours
• Freedom to express your personal style

Because of these "secrets," graphic design remains a highly promising career path for young people. Furthermore, by choosing shorter pathways, students can fully capitalize on peak recruitment periods and have ample time to accelerate their career development.

Why should you study graphic design right after graduating from junior high school?

The graphic design industry is currently very popular, a fact that many parents notice when researching career options for their children. This popularity also means a high number of students are choosing this field. In the future, this will be a fiercely competitive field, and there will be no room for those who are slow to adapt.
